Alicia, who operated Victoria Flower Shop at 420 Roncesvalles Avenue for 18 years, closed her shop last Friday. She has been thinking about retiring from the flower business for quite some time, and recently sold her property and tells me that she’s looking forward to a lengthy holiday. We wish her all the best in her future endeavours.

I had the pleasure of speaking with the new owner of 420 Roncesvalles, who will be opening up a bridal fashion shop in February.
